Had a difficult to find issue with my car but Bolton Timing Chains went above and beyond to help me with my car, taking it in several times (picking it up from my house on some occasions) even on a sunday. Genuine bloke with a real interest in actually fixing your problem. I will definitely be returning for any future work and would happily recommend to friends and family.

I took my Mazda 6 to this guy for a wheel bearing replacement. Should be a relatively simple job. He replaced the wheel bearing after having to order a special Mazda one in and then sent me on my way. As I drove away my dash lit up like a Christmas tree. I spoke with the guy the next day as he was already closed by this point and he said it's probably the ABS sensor. He said there's a 50/50 chance that the sensor will need replacing whenever you replace a wheel bearing (apparently only true if you don't know what you're doing). He ordered an ABS sensor which arrived almost 2 weeks later, and it was the wrong one. Yet again had to wait almost 2 weeks for the right one. When it finally arrived and was fitted, the lights on my dash refused to leave. Not only that but there was a scraping sound coming from the wheel whenever I drove anywhere, and the car was pulling to the side. In the end I relented and took the car to a more experienced garage, who told me that this guy had messed everything up. The wheel bearing was put on the wrong way round, the ABS sensor wasn't right and hadn't been set up properly, and to top it all off he'd destroyed my ABS hub with a drill after trying to get the ABS sensor plug out of its socket. Everything had to be completely rebuilt and an original £140 bill turned into well over £700 to repair the damage. I just don't appreciate someone telling me that they can do a job when they're only assuming that they can. When it comes to cars you NEED to know what you're doing before you even attempt something, because (as was proven in this case) you can cause even more damage. Such a waste of time and money! I surely won't be going for the cheapest option in the future. I'll be giving my money to someone who will do the job right first time. Luckily I managed to get my money refunded, but that doesn't get me close to what I had to pay to fix everything.

Graham contacted me the same day as the job was posted. Due to his busy schedule he was only able to see me the Wednesday after. Once on site he did a thorough check for 40 pound diagnostic which is cheaper than any garage.
Faults quickly diagnosed with main fault repaired same day and one repaired the following week.
Graham was friendly, approachable and offered good, free advice.
